Best Manicure with Color Street: 8 Tips for your best application

Tip #1: Wash Hands

Before applying your Color Street Nail Strips make sure you’ve washed your hands. This will ensure that all excess oils on your hands are removed before applying your polish strip

Tip #2: Make Sure Color Street nail strips are at room temperature

Make sure your strips are at room temperature. Color Street Nail Strips that are cold can potentially crack. If your Color Street nail strips are cool just place them in the palm of your hand to warm them up.

Tip #3: Push back cuticles

Now that your hands are washed use an orange stick to push by your cuticles. By not pushing back your cuticles the nail strip may potentially be placed on top causing it to lift as your nail starts to grow.

Tip #4: Use your thumb

Use your thumb as your tool. Color Street Nail Strips are 100% polish so they are soft and flexible. All you need to remove the excess polish strip from the nail is your thumb

Tip #5: Start with Pinky

Start with your pinky and work your way through each nail leaving your thumb for last

Tip #6: Use alcohol prep pad before and after

Use your alcohol prep pad both before and after applying your Color Street Nail Polish strip. Using the alcohol prep pad before application removes excess oil and preps the nail and using the alcohol prep pad once applied ensures that the nail strip is properly sealed.

Tip #7: Wait 30 minutes

Allow at least 30 minutes for your nail strip to “cure”. While Color Street Nail Strips don’t require any dry time you want to give it some time to properly adhere to the nail. I recommend applying the strips at night before bed.

Tip #8: Use Clear as Day

To make your Color Street manicure last even longer be sure to use our Clear As Day strips. (You can find them HERE)
